On Episode 4 of AIC-TV, we head to the star-studded P&G Orgullosa "Nueva Latina" red carpet event in New York City, featuring the debut of the "Nueva Latina Monologues" by celebrated author and playwright, Linda Nieves-Powell.

The Monologues tell stories from the perspective of the bi-cultural Latina; providing a voice for, and recognizing the changing and multi-faceted identities of women who embrace both Latino and American culture. Linda Nieves-Powell is known for her acclaimed body of work in this genre, including "Yo Soy Latina," and "Stereotypically Me." You can learn more about Linda at www.LindaNievesPowell.com

Nueva Latina is an online platform creating a nationwide dialogue about what it means to be a modern Latina. Orgullosa has partnered with Ms. Nieves-Powell to kickstart the conversation, and you can watch clips from the Nueva Latina Monologues, as well as tell YOUR story of being a bi-cultural Latina, over at www.Orgullosa.com, or at www.Facebook.com/Orgullosa. Don't forget to tell them AIC-TV sent you! :)

The Nueva Latina launch event attracted celebrities such as Roselyn Sanchez, Lala Anthony, Dascha Polanco, Laura Posada, and Alexia Echevarria. We spoke with Actress Dascha Polanco about her role as Daya on "Orange is the New Black," discussed the importance of educating and empowering women with TV Personality/Life Style Coach Laura Posada (www.LauraPosada.com), and Real Housewives of Miami star Alexia Echevarria expressed how being bi-cultural resonated with her experience as a Latina.
